I thought it said $468, in which case I was going to say "They're over paying"

It's InBev, not UniBev. UniBev, I believe, is some soft drink company in the UK.

If they sell to a foreign company, I'll never buy their beer again...

Oh wait, I never buy it now.

And they contract much of their beers out to the other breweries.


Don't forget Iron City and Yuengling!

Doesn't Miller brew some of Sam's beers?


I know Blatz is owned by Pabst but brewed on contract by Miller. Mmmm...
